  |
HP fans don't have to look or go very far to see the state's best teams. Go north (No. 3 Frisco and No. 10 Frisco Wakeland), west (No. 2 Mansfield Timberview), east (No. 4 West Mesquite and No. 8 Rockwall) or south (No. 6 Waxahachie or No. 9 Waco Midway) and you'll find a team in the surrounding counties that is ranked in the top 10 of this week's TABC poll.
Region II has an amazing six of the top 10 teams in this week's Class 4A poll. There are eight Region II teams in the top 25, and three from District 9-4A, which HP's district will face in the first round of the playoffs. HP (8-6) is not ranked in this week's poll.
Here are this week's state rankings courtesy of the Texas Association of Basketball Coaches and the Texas Girls Coaches Association:
